HOW DO WE DIG OUR GRAVES /?

-~N~1~ Se"S
This we all know. But do we al
know that we die by eatingf 1t il
said we dig our graves with om
teeth. How foolish this sounds
Yet it is fearfully true. We are ter
rified at the approach of the choler,
and yellow fever, yet there is dis
ease constantly at our doors and il
our houses far more dangerous and
destructive. Most people have in
their own stomachs a poison, more
slow, but quite as fatal as the germs
of those maladies which sweep men
into eternity by thousands without
warning In the times of great cpl
denies. But it is a mercy that, if
we are watchful, we can tell when
we are threatened The following
are among the symptoms, yet they
do not always necessarily appear in
the same order, nor are they always
the same in different cases. There
is dull and sleepy feeling; bad
taste in the mouth, especially in the
morning; the appetite is change.
able, sometimes poor and again it
seems as though the patient could
not eat enough, and occasionally no
appetite at all; dullness and slug.
gishness of the mind; no ambition
to study or work; more or less head
ache and heaviness in the head;
dizziness on rising to the feet or
moving suddenly; furred and coat
ed tongue; sense of a load on the
stomach that nothing removes; hot
and dry skin at times; yellow tinge
in the eyes; scanty and high-colored
urine; sour taste in the mouth, fire.
quently attended by palpitation of
the heart; impaired vision, with
spots that seem to be swimming in
the air before the eyes; a cough,
with greenish-colored expecto-
ration; poor nights rest; a sticky
slime about the teeth and gums;
hands and feet cold and clammy;
irritable temper and bowels bound
up and costive. This disease has
puzzled the physicians and still puz-
zles them. 1t is the commonest of
ailments and yet the most comph-
Gated and mysterious. Sometimes
it is treated as consumption, some
times as liver complaint, and then
again as malaria and even heart dis
ease. But its real nature is that of
constipation anddyspepsia. 1t arises
in the digestive organs and soon
affects all the others through the
corrupted and poisoned blood.
Often the whole Bodybuilding
the nervous SYSTEMS literally
starred, even when there is no
emaciation to tell the sad story.
Experience has shown that there's
put one remedy that can certainly
cure this disease in all it's stages,
namely, Shaker Extract of Roots or
Mother Seigels Curative Syrup. 1t
never fails but, nevertheless, no time
should be lost in trying other so
called remedies, for they will do no
good. Get this great vegetable
